1.We Got the Noise-my favorite song on the album.great lyrics,great guitar work,great song.what else to say about it but 100% perfect in every single little way?10/10
2.Knowledge-my least favorite song on the album.decent lyrics,not a whole lota guitar,but was still a pretty decent song.6/10

12.better days-wasn't to great,but still decent.7/10
13.was also pretty well done,but not long enough and the lyrics wern't as well done.8/10

The Donots Rock!, March 18, 2005
This review is from: Got the Noise (Audio CD)
I first saw these guys touring with Millencolin and they are really great! They are a successful mix of pop-rock, punk and have recently developed a much more raw, hardcore edge especially on this album.
There are so many great tracks, opening with the straight up rock n roll anthem 'We got the Noise' right up to the attitude filled 'Punchline'. fans of great gutar music will be easily pleased, 'Knowledge' has a kick ass guitar solo and 'Life ain't Gonna Wait' opens up with an awesome riff! It's well worth looking ito these guys, they have a great knack for penning catchy rock songs and appeal to just about anyone

German Punk rocks!, July 22, 2004
This review is from: Got the Noise (Audio CD)
A week ago a good friend of mine bought a new Album "Got the noise" by the Donots.
As we drove in his car we were listening to the cd and I found it was not bad at all.
As i didn't really know a lot about the Donots (the only two songs I've ever heard are "Superhero" and "We're not gonna take it"), I did not expect too much when I bought the cd.
But in fact I was really surprised!
The band plays some really good punk, they in a way remind me of "The Ataris", but they are a lttle harder.
They have some quite catchy songs on their album:
1. "We Got The Noise" - Their first single and entry song. Very good one, although I think there are even better ones on the album. 4/5
2. "Knowledge" - I like the lyrics of this one, catchy chourus! 4/5
3. "Wretched Boy" - Pretty normal punk song, nothing really special to me 3.5/5
4. "It's Over" - I love this one, cool lyrics and melody! 5/5
5. "Diappear" is the "worst" song of the album to me. The singer is more screaming than singing and melody is nothing too special either. 3/5
6. "Life Ain't Gonna Wait" - One of the best songs on the album, has a really cool beginning! A little harder than the other songs (reminds me a little of the new single of H-Bloxx "Leave me alone") 4/5
7. "Alright Now" - Nothing special to say about that song - i like it (nice middle-part) 4/5
8. "Good-Bye Routine" - No E-Guitars this time, a slower, chillin' song, nice change 4/5
9. "Your Way Home" - Again a song with a really cool middle part, the whole song is quite good, nothing too special though. 3.5/5
10. "The Jerk Parade" - Yeah, that one rocks! My absolute favourite! I love the chourus!! 5/5
11. "Cough It Up" - Again a slower, good one 4/5
12. "Better Days(not included)" - Don't know if that is still punk, it's a little harder, reminds me of Hoobastank's "Out of Control". Still I really like it!! 5/5
13. "Punchline" - Good song to end the album with, has some hard riffs again, and the typical punk verses. The ending is really cool!! 4/5
The average rating of the album therefore is 4/5.
I'd say, everyone who is into punk rock and a little harder music should defenitely buy this one!
I can just say, that the few days I own it now, I don't listen to anything else at the moment ;)
